The following press release was issued by NextEra Energy and Dominion Energy on July 15, 2026.

NextEra Energy and Dominion Energy file to combine, building a stronger company to meet growing power demand across four of America’s fastest-growing states while keeping energy affordable and reliable

JUNO BEACH, Fla. and RICHMOND, Va., July 15, 2026 - NextEra Energy, Inc. (NYSE: NEE) and Dominion Energy, Inc. (NYSE: D) today filed applications seeking regulatory approval of their proposed combination with the Virginia State Corporation Commission, the North Carolina Utilities Commission, the Public Service Commission of South Carolina, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

America is entering an era of rapidly growing electricity demand that will require substantial investment in generation, transmission, distribution and grid resilience. The proposed combination is designed to preserve Dominion Energy’s local strengths with NextEra Energy’s added resources, balance sheet strength, supply chain expertise, construction experience and operating capabilities to help meet that demand reliably and affordably over the long term. The combined company would serve approximately 10 million customer accounts across four of the nation’s fastest-growing states and be better positioned to buy, build, finance and operate the energy infrastructure customers need more efficiently.

The larger platform is intended to complement, not replace, Dominion Energy’s local operating model. Dominion Energy’s operating companies would remain locally led, separately regulated and accountable to their state commissions, while their teams gain access to additional technology, capital and proven practices. That includes a proven track record at Florida Power & Light Company (FPL) with more than 20 years of reliably and affordably meeting growth in one of the fastest-growing states in America, with a reliability performance of more than 60% better than the national average and a typical residential bill approximately 30% below the national average.

A word from John Ketchum, chairman, president and CEO of NextEra Energy:

“This combination is about putting scale and a stronger, more comprehensive platform behind Dominion Energy’s local teams so they can meet growing power demand while keeping bills affordable and service reliable. We’re bringing together two industry-leading teams with complementary strengths and expertise. Dominion Energy brings deep local knowledge, experienced employees and a strong operating record. NextEra Energy brings additional scale, an industry-leading operating platform, financial strength, supply chain expertise and operating efficiencies we have built through FPL and NextEra Energy Resources. Together, we will be better positioned to partner with states and communities to attract new investment, support new jobs and invest in the all-of-the-above energy infrastructure customers need, including renewables, battery storage, nuclear and gas-fired generation. Customers would experience immediate value through $2.25 billion in shareholder-funded bill credits and long-term value through a stronger company that can buy, build, finance and operate energy infrastructure projects more efficiently, which will result in long-term customer benefits.”

A word from Robert Blue, chair, president and CEO of Dominion Energy:

“This is a combination centered on customers, communities and employees. It preserves the Dominion Energy utilities our customers know — the same local leaders, employees, regulatory oversight and commitment to an all-of-the-above energy mix — while adding capabilities that can help us build needed infrastructure more efficiently and keep bills affordable. Our employees and communities can be confident that we will remain a strong local employer, a constructive economic development partner and a reliable provider of the energy that powers homes, businesses and new investments.”

Delivering real value to customers, communities and employees
